To quote from some dead white guys:
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government...

I probably shouldn’t be quoting from the Declaration of Independence, though, because now The CHOSEN ONE, The ANNOINTED will be alerted, and he will issue an executive order to have the national archives begin directly reporting to the White House Chief of staff, and all that silly stuff like the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and so forth will be dumped into the Potomac or burnt, and the many copies thereof will be dismissed as mere creations of right wing conspirators since the original documents can no longer be produced.

I’m thinking it might be time for pitchforks and torches.
